Gotcha! Or rather you got me ;)
Well, as R. Daltrey says...Won't get fooled again (1st Denise, now you. Sheesh.)

Thanks Denise.
Inframan, I actually don't have a wider shot - when I took this one, I actually was focusing on the doors, and the geometric patterns between the two structures. It just caught my eye. It was early afternoon, so I had to shoot into shadow with some very hot sun...so I compromised the blown highlights on the leaves to get the detail in the homes. If I did have a wider shot, it would spoil the 'Magic' of the setting (Mickey told me to say that). ;)

This is really a lovely shot & a lovely place, Justin. Nice details on the roof shakes, too. Any possibility to see a fuller shot in Samples?
Interesting how different the 2 houses are in every detail, yet they're butted up like row houses.

I really like the composition and lighting, Justin. The tree branches add to the overall warm and cozy feel I get from this image.
